| 5/20/26 | Activity vs Strategic Positioning in Pharma Careers | This episode is for the woman in pharma or biotech who has strong performance reviews, a supportive boss, colleagues who rave about her, and still can't get the move she wants. We're getting into the difference between activity and strategic visibility — why being known is not the same as being positioned, and how to fill the gap. In this episode, you'll learn: Why you can be exceptionally well-positioned with your immediate team and completely invisible to the people who actually control wha... | 15m 24s | ||||||
| 5/6/26 | Be Irreplaceable in a World of AI | The AI conversation in Pharma and Biotech is generating a lot of anxiety, and a lot of misplaced action. Women are either chasing every new tool or avoiding the whole conversation entirely. This episode cuts through both reactions to get at what the research and the data actually say about what protects a career right now. The skill most likely to determine who gets promoted, who survives a reorg, and who gets called first is not the one most strong technical performers are investing in. That... | 17m 36s | ||||||
| 4/15/26 | The Cost of Career Confusion in Pharma | You have impressive credentials, a track record that speaks for itself, and a career that looks exactly right from the outside. And yet something is off. The work has become transactional. Your role has accumulated tasks that don't connect to a strategy. You can see a vision for what you want, but you cannot articulate it — partly because it does not exist yet in any form you have seen before. That is a clarity problem. And more information is not going to solve it. In this episode, I a... | 24m 48s | ||||||
| 4/1/26 | 4 Actions to Stop Being Pharma's Best-Kept Secret | This episode picks up where the last one left off — and gets super specific. If your performance and results are strong but your advancement isn't reflecting it, the issue isn't how hard you're working. It's where that work is being directed. I'm walking you through four moves you can make right now to see growth in your career. What you'll learn: Ask the one question that reveals exactly how your manager is positioning you in leadership conversations.Map where your reputation currently lives... | 19m 52s | ||||||
| 3/18/26 | Comp Statement Landed. Now What? | This episode is for the woman who is questioning what’s next after the performance and compensation conversation. The number landed. The feedback was good. And somehow that made it worse, because when you do the math, you realize the outcome does not reflect what you actually bring. It reflects what was budgeted, what the band allows, what a group of people settled on in a 90-minute meeting you were not part of. This episode is about what to do with that feeling, and more specifically, what t... | 28m 43s | ||||||
| 3/4/26 | It's Not About the Title | This is for the woman who’s aiming for a promotion (or a bigger external role) and keeps thinking, If I could just get that title, everything would feel different. Today we are going beyond the title to talk about the messy middle, what drives advancement and the critical part needed to reach your advancement goal. When you don’t understand your deeper “why,” you can end up pushing for something that isn’t actually the solution… or finally getting it and realizing it feels hollow. In this epi... | 19m 36s | ||||||

This isn’t a traditional teaching episode. It’s more a behind-the-scenes conversation. We talk about the roadblocks I hit in my own 9-to-5, the moment I was told my e... | 18m 05s | ||||||
| 2/18/26 | The Method This Job Market Needs | This job market needs a different approach - tune in to hear why. If you’ve been applying to roles, asking for promotions, taking on stretch work, and getting ghosted or hearing “not yet” or “there’s no budget,” this conversation is for you. When budgets tighten and leaders become selective, performance alone isn’t enough. In these environments, they don’t promote or hire “good enough.” They move toward the person who feels necessary. And when the rules aren’t clear, it’s easy to intern... | 21m 34s | ||||||
